Man I would like to follow you around! Great buy! Are these dryers 110v it looks like they would have to be to be portable? |

When I had my apartment, I had a LK portable dryer that got daily use for 27 years. Had to replace the drive belt at 25, but that was it. My dryer had a significantly larger capacity than the Hoover--we looked at both when my family was shopping. I'd say it was maybe 2/3 the size of a full size dryer? It worked out okay for us; I generally hung wash on the lines in my basement for a day before putting the mostly dry clothes in the dryer for a quick fluff 'n tumble. Best part of the dryer was the Permanent Press cycle. The buzzer would sound when the cycle was done, but it kept tumbling without heat (buzzing occasionally) until you actually turned it off. Sure wish my new Frigidaire had that! |

i found that little dryer and last year i found a hoover washer at the good will store for 20$. its so cute and it really does wash well although it just a tad bit loud when it spins out. i cant imagine having to do all my laundry in those things. in so spoiled having the big sets. it makes the little ones seem like toys. and i always have room for fun toys.

I am the proud parent of a new mini kenmore. And I have finally got my camera connected so I can share with everyone. |

mini agitator seems to work good. But the machine goes right into spin. So I will have to replace ? It's worth it. |

I had one of these Maytag dryers when I lived in Phoenix, I had only a small space for a washer/dryer stack unit. For a while I had a small Hoover twin tub with the 'Tag dryer, then moved up to a full-size Whirlpool washer. We built a stand for the dryer to sit over the washer - the whole arrangement worked very well. Here's a pic of the laundry closet - the dryer stand went in shortly after this was taken. When I moved from Phoenix to Omaha, I put the little dryer outside, next to the dumpster. Within a few short minutes, someone had snatched it up and carried it away. Another appliance regret, I wish I hadn't sold the little Hoover Deluxe washer, I've never seen one in as nice of condition since...
